Lewisburg, W.V.: A Truly Cool Small Town
— By The Budget Travel Editors
We love the way tiny Lewisburg, on the Greenbrier River in West Virginia, packs an incredible arts scene, artisanal food and drink, and a vibrant downtown into a town of fewer than 4,000 people.
You’ll love Lewisburg's restaurants, with imaginative menu items like the Cheese & Peppers Panino and Middle Eastern Spiced Lamb Burger at the Stardust Cafe.
The Salt Cave and Spa offers an indulgent “eco” option for travelers, with incredible treatments in a unique environment.
The Salt Cave is housed in a system of cave systems and puts energy efficiency at the top of its list - right alongside pampering its guests.
The Greenbrier is one of America’s truly spectacular resorts, spanning thousands of acres and offering six on-site restaurants - something for every taste.
The Greenbrier boasts world-class golf facilities that draw all levels of players and enthusiasts.
The jaw-dropping Greenbrier River Trail is part of the West Virginia state parks system. The trail spans more than 70 miles and draws hikers, cyclists, and skiers in winter.
We love the way the Greenbrier River Trail has adapted an old railroad track, transforming it into a beautiful year-round park.
Downtown Lewisburg is a vibrant, historic area where you can explore a cool craft beer scene at Greenbrier Valley Brewing Company, local art at Harmony Ridge Gallery, Brick House Antiques, a variety of restaurants including The Wild Bean coffee shop, beautifully appointed lodgings like the General Lewis Inn, and much more.
Refuel with tasty tacos and other Mexican fare at Del Sol Cantina, one of Lewisburg’s great restaurants.
One of only four in the world, Lewisburg’s Carnegie Hall performance space is the epicenter of the town’s cool arts scene.
This welcoming little town will keep you busy with its vibrant arts scene, foodie finds, and bustling downtown.
